Hi Donna and welcome! A good start is always a bonus, and hopefully you’ll continue that way! It’s a fab programme and it really works (me: 54, hated running more than anything 3 months ago, now love it and always wish it was time for the next one!)

Have fun, and tell us about your progress! πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸ˜€

Hi, I started earlier this year.and I’m so pleased I did it. I’m 66 and have always hated running, but I love it now. You will be amazed how quickly you improve, so keep going. I thought I would never be able to do it and couldn’t believe I was doing 30 minutes on week 9. I’m now up to 60 minutes. I’m not as fast as most but I’m running. It’s such a brilliant programme. I lost 5 pounds and 4.5 inches without changing my diet you!!!
